EZ Valve System

The EZ™ insertion valve system was developed to provide important performance and installation benefits to professionals working under difficult conditions and with critical needs, worldwide.

InstallationFast and Convenient Both the final EZ assembly and the installation equipment kit have been developed to be lighter and more compact than alternative methods. The result: quick and sure installations in record times. It’s faster and easier, with fewer steps than older methods such as shutdowns and line stops.

QualityPrecision EngineeredEZ components are manufactured and matched to deliver repeatable and dependable service. A complete insertion valve assembly can be created to meet your non-standard application or non-typical pipe material. Consult AVT for special projects.

VersatilityOne System, Two FunctionsThe “Take It or Leave It”SM valve bonnet feature provides the flexibility to either insert a permanent, high quality valve or temporarily use EZ for an economical and single excavation line stop.

EnvironmentSingle Excavation and Low ProfileEZ installs under pressure and in one excavation eliminating expensive multiple excavations. Faster installation times save man-hours while avoiding residential and business disruption to your system.

In comparison to traditional line stop equipment, EZ’s low-profile design usually permits plating over to keep traffic moving instead of requiring alternative routing and the attendant costs.

Installs in 3 Easy Steps:

1. Place and Secure the precision machine valve body to the pipe.

2. Mill the 1-5/8" (45mm) slot by rotating valve assembly and cutter 120 degrees across the to of the pipe (no coupon, all milling chips removed).

3. The integral isolation valve allows for removal of the cutter and the installation of the valve bonnet, all under full line pressure.

PlusRemove bonnet and install cover plate (under pressure) after use as a line stop.

All steps are performed quickly, under pressure, in one excavation, and without interruption of service. And You decide – “Take it or Leave it”SM – The Valve Bonnet stays for a permanent valve insertion or it leaves for reuse after temporary line stop.
